Dresden Germany
2nd International Experimental Animation Festival BEAR
19-26 March 2016
About the festival
Last year we had a festival focusing on the low-budget artists-individuals. We received more than 500 works from all over the world. But nonetheless, many of them were created by studios and not by individuals. Individual artists were largely the creators of experimental animations.
Therefore we decided to organize our 2nd festival with only one section and call it "experimental".
The director of the International Experimental Animation Festival BEAR is Olga Guse - the creator of many animated films, participated in various
international art and film festivals.
The festival will be held at the ZMO Jugend e.V., a non-profit organization focused on working with children and young people. A film society has been successfully running within the walls of ZMO Jugend e.V. for a number of years now. The Animation Festival BEAR will take place in the club for the second time.
During the festival, we plan meetings with famous Dresden animators, as well as exhibitions. Welcome to the 2nd International Experimental Animation Festival BEAR!
